The longline T-shirt sees a return to casually relaxed outlines

Longline and oversized tees are having a fashion moment, pushing against the fitted and tailored outfits of recent catwalk seasons. The growing dominance of sports lux has seen a move towards putting the longline T-shirt into our wardrobes - giving a strictly casual look that works best when attention is paid to balance, colour and accessories. Style plain men's longline t-shirts in black, white or grey over your denims, choosing skinny jeans or styles with tapered legs to provide balance. Add high-top trainers and drape long-strapped messenger bags across your body. If you need a coat go for shorter length leather bikers or fabric bombers and leave them open. Fill the neckline with a tartan scarf for a bit of colour. This easy style takes you from relaxed day to evening socialising.

Get street smart with a longline T-shirt

Although women's longline t-shirts might not be the most obvious office choice, wear yours over some tailored trousers for a refined way to work the look. Finish with a longer line trench coat and suede desert boots for outdoor errands. Longline T-shirts with holes, asymmetrical hems or tartan contrast bottoms are just right for peeking out under sweatshirts or crewneck jumpers, or try some edgy summer layering under classic tight tees with baggy cargo shorts. Add street smart accessories of dog tag chains, coloured lens sunnies and straw trilbies.
